Carragher Says Liverpool’s Win Over PSG Was the “Biggest Robbery” in Football
Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has described the team’s 1-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain as “one of the biggest robberies in football.”
Harvey Elliott scored the only goal in the 87th minute at the Parc des Princes after coming off the bench, giving Liverpool a narrow lead heading into the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.
Despite the win, Liverpool was completely outplayed by PSG. The French champions dominated the game, registering 27 shots—including 10 on target—while Liverpool managed just one, which turned out to be the match-winner.
PSG also had a first-half goal from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia ruled out for a tight offside, and only Alisson Becker’s heroics in goal kept them from scoring.
Speaking on CBS Sports, Carragher couldn’t believe what he had witnessed. “Got away with it? That’s one of the biggest robberies you’ll ever see in football,” he said. “PSG were absolutely outstanding, they were brilliant. They battered Liverpool.”
Footballer Lamine Yamal speaks on the Ballon d’Or award and shares how he will still be happy if his teammate, Pau Cubarsí, gets the award.
“Last year, for me, Cubarsí was the best young player in the world. Either the Kopa award or the Ballon d’Or should go to him. There’s no difference between us.
“When I won it, I told him that he would be next. If he doesn’t win it for whatever reason, I will give it to him.”
Popular footballer Cristiano Ronaldo speaks on retirement and shares how he actually thought of retiring from international football after the 2026 World Cup.
“I thought about retiring from international football after the World Cup, but I spoke to the president, coach, and I am still here. I am an asset, I can help.”
He adds, “The young kids love me because they see me as an example, and that, for me, is the most important thing. I will continue to do that even when I retire after 10 years.”
Footballer Kylian Mbappé shares that he actually came close to signing with Liverpool.
“I was close to Liverpool. My mum was a big fan of Jurgen Klopp, and the favourite destination for my mum was Liverpool. She wanted me to go there,” Mbappé told The Athletic.
“I didn’t listen because I wanted to play in my city, Paris. I didn’t want to leave my country before I was someone. But yes, my mum was always saying, ‘Liverpool — you’re going to be there, playing at Anfield, it’s going to be insane for you.’ I was like, ‘OK!’
“All the time we were talking. ‘What do you think, Mum?’ She’d say, ‘For me, you have to go to Liverpool.’ I said, ‘OK, OK, OK!’ because Jurgen Klopp was an amazing manager. I met him and had a wonderful relationship with him. I had big respect for him.”
